      I'm just hoping I get to attend SW 2014... I couldn't go last year because we rolled out a new piece of software.

          I need sleep to function. Not a morning person, but I get up and make it happen. Sometimes this means 2-3 cups of coffee.
          I start getting sleepy anywhere between 2200 and 2300 hours.

          I had the same thing happen to me - I found Vitamin B12 tablets at GNC - 1000mg - put one under my tounge (remember doing acid in the 60's?) and within a few minutes, I have my natural energy level back - no crash either - I love it! It was so bad in the afternoon for me, I felt like I could just lay down and go to sleep - I no longer have that issue with the B12 caplets. I've tried the walmart brand because they are cheaper, but not the same effect, so I only buy from GNC.

            For a long time, I was truly a night person. Then I made the transition to being a 'morning' person, where my day normally started around 4:30 am. Now, due to my work schedule, I'm an evening/night person.

            A.J. if your body needs sleep (usually 7-8 hours) then caffeine is only going to help a little bit. You can't 'bank' sleep or 'catch up' on sleep either. You use it or lose it. Kind of difficult sometimes.

              @Bob-Beatty Actually Bob, the picture you put on Facebook a few weeks ago of the pack of B vitamins you were using (probably the ones you described) was what inspired me to try this. So thanks! I forgot I never properly thanked you! I had heard good things about B vitamins but it was that Facebook post that got me thinking about it very seriously. 😄

                @ajstringham Does it work for you? I had a couple of people tell me it didnt do much, but others swear by it.

                  @bud Yup. People say that you should "catch-up" on your sleep. Not actually possible. You just rest longer for a stretch of time to rejuvenate yourself to be back to functional. But yea, you can't make up sleep.

                    @bob-beatty Well, I'm on Day 20 in a row of no caffeine. Period. Maybe an infinitesimal amount from a little chocolate on a candy bar but that's it. I've had longer and more stable energy and ZERO crashes. I'll never go back. Almost broke down this morning and got some Cola because I was so tired but my mom talked me out of it. Glad I didn't. 🙂

                      @bob-beatty part of why it works from some and not others is you have to give up the caffeine and take good quality B12.

                              I make up sleep. Works like a charm.

                                @scottalanmiller It's scientifically impossible. You don't make up sleep. Your body just shuts down until it's significantly recovered. That damage is done though.

                                          Most people too much coffee just makes them need to use the comfort room too often 😉
